I thank Dr. Hillyer for attending. In the Turf Club's tests, who does the sampling, how independent is that person and how fearful are the owners and breeders to see him or her approaching? We can have all of the regulations in the world, but unless they have absolute integrity, it can be an issue.

Dr. Hillyer stressed the importance of having a world class laboratory in Ireland, but what is the opportunity to send split samples to other laboratories to have them retested?
